Career


Surgeloose made his first Belgian team, as a 19-year-old, at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he qualified for the men's 200 m freestyle. He cleared a FINA B-standard entry time of 1:49.36 from the Mare Nostrum Barcelona International Trophy in Spain.[5][6] He cruised to seventh place and thirtieth overall in heat five by a tenth of a second (0.10) behind Greece's Andreas Zisimos in 1:48.92.[7]

At the 2010 European Aquatics Championships in Budapest, Hungary, Surgeloose broke a new long-course Belgian record of 1:48.29 to round out the finale in the 200 m freestyle. Surgeloose's personal best and overhauling effort in the final propelled him up to the top 25 world rankings.[8][9]

At the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, Surgeloose competed in both individual and relay swimming events. A year earlier, he posted a FINA B-cut of 1:48.96 (200 m freestyle) from the World Championships in Shanghai, China.[10][11] In the 200 m freestyle, Surgeloose challenged seven other swimmers on the third heat, including three-time Olympian Tiago Venâncio of Portugal and semifinalist Nimrod Shapira Bar-Or of Israel. He raced to fourth place by six hundredths of a second (0.06) behind Venezuela's Cristian Quintero in his personal textile best of 1:48.77. Surgeloose failed to advance into the semifinals, as he placed twenty-fifth overall in the preliminaries.[12] Surgeloose also placed twelfth as a member of the Belgian team in the 4 × 200 m freestyle relay. Teaming with Pieter Timmers, Dieter Dekoninck, and Louis Croenen, Surgeloose swam the second leg with a split of 1:48.22 to set a Belgian record of 7:14.44 in the heats.[13]

At the 2016 Summer Olympics, he competed in the 100 m and 200 m freestyle events and helped Belgium's 4 x 100 m freestyle and 4 x 200 m freestyle teams into the final of both events.[14]
